12 Common Signs And Symptoms Of Pneumonia

 7. Loss of Appetite

Dr Axe

Another common sign of pneumonia is a loss of appetite. More often than not, patients that are suffering from pneumonia are dealing with a number of other issues, such as a debilitating cough, nausea and sometimes stomach pain, no sense of taste, chills, and tons more, leaving them severely exhausted where food is the last thing on their mind. In fact, they’d probably rather sleep than eat since the coughing also makes it that much harder to ingest a proper meal. If you are dealing with a lack of appetite, alongside any of the other signs on this list, get yourself checked at the nearest hospital to know if you have pneumonia or something else entirely.
